this grid is not nice !

2:15 am

jillibus

the "other things" are my usual designing a calendar for the local Seniors' Society, showing all the available activities and using a lot of clip art and such -- for Nov and Dec -- plus reminders about Xmas mailing dates and other stuff. Takes a lot of hours away from babbling!

you could have said that in the rosselini film "paisa", there is a corpse floating down the river during the liberation after WWII, and there is a sign tucked in the board he's floating on, and it says pa8

7:51 am

chickieo8

The best thing for a cat bite ( if you know the cat) is to put a lot of proxcide on it to bubble the germs out and then put an antibiotic on it two or three times a day...........been there.

my beans are a mix I made up of several types of beans.

8:49 am

flosey

how long do you soak them before cooking angel

8:49 am

Angelsong

I also made my own seasoning blend for the soup.

8:49 am

hurshy

i just soak the beans for a day and then throw them in a pot with 4 c stock and 4 c water, hamhocks, scallions, and some potatoes, then cook for .... hours. then, i remove the hamhocks of course, and then put some of the soup in a blender and liquefy it, and pour it back in, that makes it nice and thick. i get a mix of 16 beans from stop and shop.

flosey, sometimes I soak them overnight then cook them, but I'm soaking this time with several changes of water. I hope to reduce the gas by breaking down some of the complex sugars.

8:50 am

good choice, crossy

ah, wondered why you changed water often, thanks

8:51 am

Some MIT students did a study and found that IF the governement (or other forms of "they") are beaming mind control rays they would have to be of a certain set of frequencies. Which frequencies would be significantly enhanced by a foil hat.

VERY proud of Walter this evening! But it's kind of a long story...

1:12 pm

Scrabbler

Finally, kje! Yahoo for you!

1:12 pm

kje

well, thanks scrab... sorry to make you wait sooooo long - LOL

1:13 pm

JBV

go ahead, Monkey, I love your Walter stories

1:13 pm

MonkeyGames

We have new rules about food, mainly regarding strrict scheduliong, to avoid unpleasant scenes like one we accidentally had at dinner recently. Well, tonight Walter, who know he has to come to the table and be friendly for a few minutes even if he doesn't want to eat, refused, saying he wanted to finish putting some megablocks together first. This was the third delay for that so we said, no, he could finish that afterward, come to the table! Danny got him and put him at the table. So he threw a crying fit, and milked it for all it was worth. I told him he had to stop that and he said he could not, but he was obviously trying to keep it going. It had a most irritating fake quality to it.

1:13 pm

MonkeyGames

So I told him that he could leave the table. He went into the living roonm and kepyt it up, and after a couple of minutes got MUCH louder. So I called in, "Walter, you are only doing that because you want us to hear it, and you have to stop it or be quieter now." He went instantly silent, and after about a full minute, walked into the dining room, smiled at us, and said, "I will eat now". We had a great dinner. So I think he has figured out what "not worth it" is all about. He figured out that the tantrum was getting him nowhere and that he actually just wanted a nice dinner.

di 8 - poor decorum

1:14 pm

MonkeyGames

God forbid we should make a big deal out of it! We said thank you for coming back and that we were proud of him and left it at that. He isvery easily embarrassed and I think getting praise for towing the line makes him uncomfortable; I remember feeling that way too.

1:14 pm

dcseain

ty, kje, i
s there more than one di8?

1:14 pm

kje

sorry - that is a bad clue

1:14 pm

1:15 pm

kje

di + consonant + ta5

1:15 pm

MonkeyGames

Yup. Plus this new meals thing is really doing the trick. He is even trying new things.

1:15 pm

di8 leaves a nasty ***** in your mouth

dcseain

1:15 pm

kje

much better clue dc - my mind just couldn't come up with much

1:16 pm

MonkeyGames

Basically if he wants to skip a meal that is OK but then no snacks until after the next meal. Snacks and meals ar eclearly timed and the times are on a chart I made for him with pictures of clocks. He already figured out how to tell when it is 3:00, the Big Snack time.

1:16 pm

joey

thanks, that did it.

1:16 pm

kje

other di8 - di + vowel + what you do to a guitar
